Poor Manager Experience

Recommend

Business Outlook

Pros

Great benefits (lots of additional benefits if you are hybrid and going into the office), Executive leadership relatively down to earth

Cons

Poor training for new managers leading to bad experience as a direct report, lack of feedback, lack of transparency in the performance review cycle, lack of development and growth opportunities for supporting functions, questionable culture from certain people (heard jokes about layoffs, performance, and other sensitive employee topics in the office)
